You simply pick a minimum class that, if you're already competing, may be one class lower than what you fly now or any higher class than what you fly now. You pick your minimum class at the beginning of the year because a baseline must be established for your district championship points. You can't expect the DVP to chase around what class you're flying this contest in and then that contest in. Your minimum class is the only class that you get points in. If you fly a higher class for one, two or however many contest, your points don't count. That's it! Where are the rules that restrict you with this one? You don't have to stay in a class if it's too low for you, you just don't get to compete for District Championship if it's not your minimum class for that year. We have to keep track of a class for your points. That's the only reason for any of it. Peer pressure is going to take care of the sand baggers so we should be good to go. We will maintain a database that allows you to select your minimum class. The DVP's will have access to it as well as everyone else to see what the minimum class is. This is really as straight forward as it gets. The best part about the whole thing is that you get to try out a higher class before committing to it for the next year as your minimum class.<br><br>Scott<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>On Mon, Feb 13, 2012 at 7:56 PM, Dave Burton <<a href="mailto:burtona@atmc.net">burtona@atmc.net</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>+1 for what Arch said!</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>We’ve beat the weight and safety issues all to pieces, how about some discussion of the advancement system?</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>I’m for getting rid of the system altogether but what do others feel about the committee proposal.</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>In my mind it kind of lets you fly whatever class you want but with a lot of unnecessary regulations that just like the present system has no one to keep up with the process.
